⛏️ Mining Drills & Tools
Mine faster, automate resources, process ores efficiently, and build powerful equipment!
Mining Drills & Tools is a large mining and utility mod that greatly expands Minecraft’s survival progression. It adds powerful mining drills, automated generators, specialized ore smelters, new materials, equipment, storage solutions, utility machines, building blocks, mobs, food, and much more.
Whether you want to excavate enormous areas, automate basic resources, double your ore output, or create an advanced industrial base, this mod gives you the tools to do it.
⚙️ Mining Drills
Upgrade from basic drills to extremely powerful mining equipment.
Available drill materials include:
- 🪵 Wood
- 🪨 Stone
- ⛓️ Iron
- 🟡 Gold
- 💎 Diamond
- 🔥 Netherite

Depending on the drill, it can mine areas such as:
1x11x25x56x69x910x1017x17
Start with smaller drills and work your way toward massive excavation tools capable of clearing entire sections of terrain.
🔥 Specialized Ore Smelters
Process ores more efficiently with dedicated ore smelters.
When the correct ore is placed inside its matching smelter, the machine produces:
2x Ore Output
This allows you to get more resources from your mining trips while adding another step to the mod’s progression and automation systems.
